The Hydro Boost Night Pressed Serum is a really interesting concept that is new to me. It's almost like a firm jello consistency and it applies kind of like a gel. The serum promises 3x more hydrated skin by restoring and revitalizing your moisture barrier overnight which I'm sure most people's skin can use.
First off, I need to say that I found the serum too strongly scented. It smells kind of like a clean linen laundry scent which is fine but I think it's a bit too pungent for a face product. I found it difficult to not smell it on my face after application. For those sensitive to scents, I would not recommend it. If Neutrogena dialled back on the pungency of the smell it would make a huge difference.
As for the product, it felt nice going on. I applied it after using the Hydro Boost Hyaluronic Acid Serum (see other review) and it felt slightly cool and applied very smoothly. I was only able to test this product out for 5 days as I couldn't stand the strong scent. However, if strong scents aren't an issue I think you would like this night pressed serum.

I’m relatively new to using hyaluronic serums and this is the second one I’ve tried. Thank you ChickAdvisor and Neutrogena for sending this to me to sample.
I was impressed with the quality and effectiveness of the product. When I woke up in the morning I could still feel the serum on my skin and it formed a nice moisture shield on my face. It is scent free which I appreciated. I found this serum a little thicker than the other I’ve tried and I used more drops as a result. The micro beads look pretty but I was concerned about the environmental impact. Upon reflection though, I think they pop when applied on the skin and release additional nutrients so perhaps it isn't a valid concern.
I’ve very been enjoying using the serum and I’d problem buy it again.

I received a sample of this deodorant and loved it so much I just bought one. It’s not cheap at $8 a stick but most natural deodorants are more expensive than the aluminum deodorants. I bought a different natural one and it did nothing but mix with my stink with their fragrance. This one smells fantastic and is subtle but it actually stops me from smelling bad for an entire day. Because it’s not an antiperspirant I still sweat but it is odourless. The only thing to note is it isn’t a smooth glide on. You have to warm it against your armpit and dab it on to avoid leaving a streak of granules on your skin. Aside from that, great natural deodorant! -

I used to have really dry patchy looking skin on my legs. I’ve been using this lotion for years and especially during the dry winter months. It’s effective, fragrance free and absorbs very quickly without leaving a greasy finish. The size of the bottle is generous for the price and it lasts for 3-4 months at least. I’m a loyal Curel fan for good reason! -

I’ve used the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser on marks on my walls and baseboards and it is incredible for removing marks. It’s gentle and non abrasive. I’ve used it on stains on my white countertops and it made them sparkling again. I recently tried the Magic Eraser on soap scum in my glass shower and was AMAZED at how easily it cleaned the glass. Usually I have to use harsh chemicals and then stand in the fumes and scrub and scrub. The Magic Eraser was so easy. It’s life changing! -

I received a sample of the Uncle Ben’s Zesty Mexican Beans and really enjoyed it! I’m normally not a big bean eater but I warmed up the package following the easy directions and put them in some quesadillas with chicken and peppers and cheese and it turned out very delicious. The flavour of the beans is creamy and lightly spicy. I’d definitely buy them again. It’s such an easy addition of protein to any meal -

I really wanted to love it but it did nothing for me. I tried the sparkling citrus scent and it smells nice in the tube but added with my own stink, it was repulsive. I used the deodorant on a day when I wasn’t doing anything at home and I still stank after a couple hours. Reapplied three times throughout the day and I was still stinky :( It’s now in the trash after one day of use. -
